ipvs: Fix faulty IPv6 extension header handling in IPVS
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
IPv6 packets can contain extension headers, thus its wrong to assume
that the transport/upper-layer header, starts right after (struct
ipv6hdr) the IPv6 header.  IPVS uses this false assumption, and will
write SNAT & DNAT modifications at a fixed pos which will corrupt the
message.

To fix this, proper header position must be found before modifying
packets.  Introducing ip_vs_fill_iph_skb(), which uses ipv6_find_hdr()
to skip the exthdrs. It finds (1) the transport header offset, (2) the
protocol, and (3) detects if the packet is a fragment.

Note, that fragments in IPv6 is represented via an exthdr.  Thus, this
is detected while skipping through the exthdrs.

This patch depends on commit 84018f5:
 "netfilter: ip6_tables: add flags parameter to ipv6_find_hdr()"
This also adds a dependency to ip6_tables.

Originally based on patch from: Hans Schillstrom

kABI notes:
Changing struct ip_vs_iphdr is a potential minor kABI breaker,
because external modules can be compiled with another version of
this struct.  This should not matter, as they would most-likely
be using a compiled-in version of ip_vs_fill_iphdr().  When
recompiled, they will notice ip_vs_fill_iphdr() no longer exists,
and they have to used ip_vs_fill_iph_skb() instead.
